Right? I’m normally pretty level headed but ask my wife, I can absolutely be an asshole apparently.

*clutches pearls*

I recall grinding Sunday Cups for hours to get enough for a racing mod.

I mean for people who don’t commute on a racetrack, I can think of PLENTY of times where I need to turn my steering wheel full lock on a daily basis. Like parking pretty much anywhere.

By flooring it DIRECTLY THROUGH A CROWD OF PEOPLE, yes, the officer CHOSE to run them over. Good lord...

He absolutely was NOT in mortal danger. When was the last time a cop was killed by an unruly mob in the Seattle/Tacoma area?

The woman partway through the first video gave me a distinct Moira Rose vibe...

Its almost like you can have multiple opinions about one event. Like I, for instance, can think both “fuck those morons holding a sideshow in the middle of a city” and “WTF was that cop thinking driving over the fucking people”.

Except wireless charging is incredibly inefficient over large distances, like the 6-12" ground clearance required for a normal car/SUV. So you’d need some sort of rail to transfer power.

I actually like Teslas conceptually, and my wife is adamant that our next car should be electric which I’m fine with (although I’m very hesitant for that electric car to be MY car because I love my manual transmissions and an electric car generally has NO transmission to speak of).

Interstate ‘76 was so much fun.

These dipshits rioting in DC are NOT “We the people” and they don’t represent us. They’re Trumper morons with guns who are angry that they legitimately lost an election cycle.

Wow. What a shitheel of a parent. My god take mercy on his children...
